Huggles for Puggles
Much has happened around our household since Christmas has come and gone. We have added a new family member. Tula has joined us from a rescue shelter near our home. Tula is a puggle, a puggle with a pedigree no less. Her mother was a lovely beagle named Sweet Little Resee and her father a handsome pug names Pugsley Faust. Such a dignified beginning but in the end she was dropped off at a rescue as many dogs are after their initial cuteness wears off. After having her here for the last ten days, I have a feeling I know why. This dog is bursting with energy but then so is our house. She seems to fit in well and though she must be watched at all hours there are four eager girls to do just this. So far we have taught her to sit, go down and to stay for a treat. She comes to her new name most of the time and best of all she gets along with our old rescue girl, Emmy. Emmy seems to tolerate Tula and has even played with her a couple of times when we had some nice weather. It will be a looong time before we’ll be able to leave her unsupervised but if memory serves me right it took about two years for us to leave Emmy unsupervised as well.
Oh, she is soooo cute! You are such a jewel for taking her. I’ve done the same and am willing to help my creatures anyway I can, too
Truth is I would have many more but it just isn’t feasible with all we do. We were able to rescue one but there were others I wish I could have taken in too. My two eldest are hopefully going to start volunteering with a local rescue group.
